Since I found out I was pregnant, my life shifted from a structured, planned out timeline to an unsettled sea squall that I feel like I’ve just been waiting to die down. I need to live in flux like this because it is so opposite to the way I would choose to life my life. It’s been really good for me, but that’s not to say I’ve taken it in stride.

There’s always been “something” I’ve been waiting for in order to do the next thing. The most apparent has been my career. What am I doing? What do I want to do? How can I be a working parent without losing my mind and/or ability to be a good mom? It’s been a process and a major transition that I didn’t realize would take me this long to figure out (note: I still haven’t really figured it out).

After waiting to hear back from a promising full time job after months of intermittent consulting, I decided to take a risk. I took on a role as Chief Marketing Officer for a really exciting startup that I’m passionate about. Like with everything, it’s so hard to decide when to pull the trigger on certain life paths. When all the options are in front of me, I often become paralyzed by the decision itself. But, now that I’ve made the choice, I feel like a weight has been lifted and am already certain that this will be one of my life’s greatest and most rewarding challenges thus far!
